Attendance and Truth Lacking at the “Scummit of Horse
Slaughter”
While
under investigation for fraud and ethics vilolations Wyoming State
Rep. Sue
Wallis and her dubious appendage Dave
Duquette kicked off their rip roaring
“BloodFest”
last night to an un-packed room of a several dozen people.
Empty chairs were the theme of the evening as Wallis and Duquette
stumbled through introductions of non-present people while waiting
for their much heralded master of
ceremonies Trent Loos, known for cattle
rustling and stalking, to appear out of LaLa Land. Early on Wallis
made the mistake of turning the microphone over to Duquette who
struggled to form properly structured sentences without using any
profanity. “It’s a whole lot easier to email, ain’t it?” The
entire sinking of their bloody ship can be seen by clicking (HERE) but
we sincerely do not want to disgrace or speak poorly of any
attendees who do not really know who Wallis and Duquette are and
what their current agenda is. For those, we are sorry and
perhaps the lack of professionalism and total avoidance of truth
and logic will come forth in this meeting of the mentally
challenged. Remember, it is not “Wax on, Wax off”, in Walrus World
it is “Lies in, Truth out!”

Straight from the Horse's Heart 
I seen the list of speakers and one is Joey from the USDA brach office in DC. Joey and I have had the pleasure of meeting for two weeks straight outside of CAVEL Int. in DeKalb, IL.
Joey was finally brought in after hundreds of complaints from our Anti-Slaughter Team back in 2007. I must say, I am prepared to write a story on the actions of the USDA and Joey with covering up what really happened during his time in DeKalb, IL.
I ASHAMED that the USDA is even involved with this NIGHTMARE SUMMIT !!!
Why is the USDA even there ???
WHY ???

Here’s Trent interviewing Robin Lohnes on his little podcast. Well sort of. Mostly he just steers the conversation back again and again to horse slaughter and tries to get her to agree with him that it solves all of life’s problems. His dream is to be able to send wild horses in BLM captivity to slaughter unfettered by us activists types or any federal laws and such.

I believe I read somewhere that Trent Loose owns Progressive Insurance Company.
Can someone clarify? If it is true then a boycott needs to be called.

I did a little online research and found that Loos contributed an article on the “health benefits” of nitrates in cured meats to the website of an organization called “The Progressive Group of Companies, Inc.,” an organization based in Canada, that describes itself as “offering business management services and livestock production expertise” in “swine production management.”
Neither Loos or “The Progressive Group” livestock management consultants appear to have any connection (other than the name “Progressive”) to the group of insurance companies, based in Ohio, that operate under the name “Progressive Corporation.”

Who won the truck?
LikeLike
Hi, Louie. A man in NV won. Duquette did talk about how long it took but what is really strange (maybe not for them) is I have never heard of having a raffle where the organization buys what is being raffled. I have worked on and attended dozens of charity events and everything from the raffles to silent auctions are items that have been donated so that all proceeds benefit the organizaiton. The list of donors, unless they wish to remain anonymous, are always thanked or mentioned in the printed programs.

Forgot to mention that Duquette said he was a friend of his so maybe that was their way of giving a truck away that didn’t exist.

That would be my best guess, they canceled the raffle giveaway once because they did not get enough raffle tickets sold to pay for it..Denio is a tiny stop in the road on the oregon Nev border shouldn’t be difficult to find this person and check out the legitimacy of this event..would be nice to tag dave with some of this fraud as well..I am a little confused as in some bulletins dave calaims to be the founder of this NON profit organization..based in WYO and yet he lives in the pendleton-hermiston area of Oregon..again i noticed they state the Umatilla tribe supports them..and they are based in the same area..again i fully expect them to be exploiting the Umatillas by trying to site a slaughter facility on their reservation land,,Maybe that is why dear Abbey is so involved in this issue..trying to circumvent the fact that congress refused to allow the wild horses to be slaughtered..by using the tribes which are under the jurisdiction of the DOI

I went to UStream and had no problem watching “it” alive. Obviously not a full house or people with a “full deck”. Most conversation is trying to figure out how to take down the Humane Society. Sounded like a beef guy wants a “horse checkoff” like the beef checkoff(producer money). And there is no longer slaughter–it’s processing. The age of the audience looked to be on the “older side” and there are still people out there that want to feed the poor starving people horsemeat. I heard John Hollands name mentioned and a Vicki–didn’t catch the last name. Congratulations you two!

I heard Sue Wallis at a Society for Range Management meeting in November 2009, and I would have categorized her position as “extreme” and “radical” then (she’s gotten even more extreme and radical since). But the SRM is a private organization and entitled to make mistakes about who they have at their shindigs, whereas the BLM is a taxpayer-supported government organization and meant to stay at least within shouting distance of the mainstream. What in heck are they doing getting cozy with the likes of this group? And where is President Obama’s famous caution in letting one of his Departments go off the rails to this extent?
Don’t tell me that Abbey, et al. are required to “hear all sides” and “consider the views of all stake holders.” This is not that kind of thing at all. The BLM does not need reorganization, it needs an intervention, with mental health professionals in charge. Seriously. Needs help.

Vicki, this was posted in the comments on the Cloud Blog. They need to hear from you:
“The Seattle Times” article needs to be analyzed and picked apart for accuracy, which I am not able to do.
It is dangerous because it makes horse slaughter seem like a necessary and reasonable solution
Northwest tribes seek solutions to unwanted horses

I got a letter from “Dear Abby” today (US mail!) regarding my letter asking him not to attend the horse slaughter summit. Did anyone else write him about this or get a letter from him? I could type it all if needed but basically it said, “I have accepted the invitation because, as Director of the BLM, I am committed to meeting with diverse stakeholders who have an interest in public land management issues. I have taken the position that slaughter of healthy wild horses is not a viable or acceptable management option.” [can’t wait to hear what he actually said at Sue’s summit – is this what he told her?] … ” Also, I will make my remarks less than two weeks after a report from the Department of Interior’s Office of Inspector General found that the BLM and ITS CONTRACTORS DID NOT TREAT ANY HORSES AND BURROS INHUMAINLY.” Give me a break!!! What was happening to that burro on the CNN video – not to mention the hours of other documented mistreatment of MY animals? … He then urges me to visit the Wild Horse and Burro’s Web page for ACCURATE, timely information on the BLM’s management of wild horses and burros. NO KIDDING!!! I got this letter from him today and he wants ME to get accurate information from their website … give me a break!!!!!!! (I can’t say the words I am thinking)

Dear Grandma Greg, With all due respect I wouldnt believe one word that came out of Bob Abbeys mouth, he has already set the stage , for his and the BLMs actions and have been video proof all over the place !!!!!! If he in fact had one once of concern for the Lives of Our Mustangs , the round ups would have never started, and would not continue!!!! There were viable solutions all along if in fact it wasnt lies from the Start !!!! If I am not mistaken He was the one who called them RATS WITH HOOVES????? Therefore , I will never expect anything he would say would be the truth !!!!!!
